Convert Distance and Time to Miles per Hour

How do I convert a distance traveled in a specific amount of time to miles per hour (or some other unit of speed)? For example, if a vehicle travels 2.54 miles in 1.67 minutes, what is its speed in miles per hour?

Divide the distance traveled by the time required. In this example, divide 2.54 miles by 1.67 minutes. To perform this conversion using our measurement conversion calculator, you can convert from 2.54/1.67 miles/minute to miles per hour or mph.
